Let us remember that when we are on the 'net, "We aren't in Kansas
anymore, Toto." What may be funny in one place ain't necessarily so
elsewhere.
[Apologies to friends & relatives in Kansas. But hey, I was born in Wichita
myself.]

Hi Tech Writers.
I got this from from Travis, or should I say: travis -at- netrix -dot- com -dot-
In rec.humor.funny, he passed along some excerpts from a Manual for
the "Lucky Enlarger", a photo enlarger manufactured sometime in the early
1950's in Japan. It's a good example of unsuccessful documentation.
